go for cx450m psu

r3 1300x 

cheapest 120gb ssd for OS

cheapest 1tb hdd for games etc...

try to find 3200 or atleast 3000mhz ram  

[Fasauceome]

I think that looks super solid. Don't let any elitists tell you a tier 4 PSU isn't good enough, cause I can hear it already.

[Flawizz]

and idk the prices over there but go for a 1060 6gb instead if they're cheaper than the 580 or if it is still in ur budget

No need for any of that stuff. Storage can be upgraded later, nice big SSD reads and writes faster, PSU doesn't need replacing, r3 1200 can be overclocked to match 1300 on stock, and ryzen 3 doesn't worry about infinity fabric so faster ram is not important. (not like 2800 is slow)

tru, but he says first build so i wouldnt get into oc. anything can happen. and perhaps save some $$ on psu with less watt

nah, a mild overclock is safe and a good skill to have early on. Also, getting bottom of the barrel cheap storage isn't necessarily better.

he on a budget tho, which means if oc goes wrong, it voids warranty and dead cpu, no money cause on budget, but ok just suggesting

never said cheap storage is better, it will do the job, as i said he's on a budget

You would probably be fine with  8GB of ram I would recommend a 2200G over the 1200 but cant guarantee the bios will work out of the box.

Seems great, but that SSD is kind of slow, I would go for WD Blue or Samsung Evo.

Thanks I was thinking of going for the Blue

Do not do WD blue, it is a cachless drive and will be slower and die faster than an EVO.
